Just Panela


While reading more about Just Panela Artisanal Cane Sugar 100% Unprocessed, I looked up non-centrifugal sugar and found a familiar term - jaggery there. We use jaggery on and off in making some sweets - Polelu. Since the jaggery we buy is in a solid form, we have to grate it before we can use it. Even a sweet rice is made with rice cooked with jaggery. I saw recipes for jaggery tea that include boiling the jaggery in water. With Just Panela, you can skip all those boiling, grating and make it a quick affair to have tea or desserts with natural sugar. First day I thought the sugar had aftertaste but day two onwards, I didnt feel so. You can also get by with lesser sugar than the white one.

I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
